Answer 1

Answer:

D. 51

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the number of 8th graders.

34% of 600 = 34% * 600 = 0.34 * 600 = 204

There are 204 8th graders.

One-fourth of 204 students walk to school.

We need to find one-fourth of 204.

1/4 * 204 = 1/4 * 204/1 = 204/4 = 51

Answer: D. 51

Answer 2

600 * .34 =  204 are in 8th grade

204 * 1/4 = 51 51 8th graders walk to school
